Hi Mom! Mi Mama! Yo JoJo!
You and I were always good at writing letters (snail mail) to one another. I have boxes it seems if saved letters from you about life, how things are going, projects, goals, dogs, love, anger, frustration. Then when email became common, we still wrote letters. I’ve always liked that. I’m writing today just to say I miss you. I’m going through some things where I’m struggling. I’m looking for work and that seems endless and requires patience. I’m frustrated with it because I don’t really know what I want to do after decades of doing mortgages. For now, I just need to work so I’m applying for a very wide variety. I’m still working with Dad and Merritt but there’s no income there for a while. Day trading has been a failure. So from all this, I feel like a bit of a failure. I know if we talked, you would say that I’m educated, accomplished, smart, good with people, a winner, and to get the best position for you because you are the best. You honestly were always my number one supporter and built me up. Thank you mom. Second thing that’s weighing on me is Leslie and me. Marriage is work you told me over and over. You said Leslie is a good woman so stick with it. We are continuing to do therapy and have talks often. It’s weighing on me. GGG is what you said. Glue Guts Glee. I’ll focus on that. Well, I’ll march forward with what’s in front of me. It’s true that you gave me all the instructions to be successful. But….sure would like to have a chat. For now, this letter is our chat.
Ok bye! Love you, Buff
